 whitestar505Hi Cam...I recently heard the same thing about different B vitamins...however, I take a multi B supplement every day that has large amounts of all the various B vitamins...but if i walk outside without DEET...I m covered with bites!  Hubby gets none, I get them all.  I guess there s not much we can do when we re this sweet!  [;)]

 whitestar505Whitestar,
 
 Thanks for starting this topic.  It s something I have been wondering about, too.  I think that with the drought last year there was less of a problem with mosquitos, but all the water this year is sure to bring them out in higher numbers.  All of my friends 3 children have had Lyme s disease and I believe West Nile could become a real threat.  
 
 I was wondering if someone would bring up the B12.  I heard something about it on here last summer but don t remember how much to take.  
 
 I find it very interesting that some in my family seem to get bit up a lot and others don t even though we go the same places.  That makes me wonder if something is attracting or repelling them (ie. my toddler didn t get one bug bite last summer yet they really seemed to like my DH and oldest son.)
